    Summary

    The first project I started researching when I bought my xTool M1 was to recreate the style of a decorative sign in our rental property—a rustic "Pantry" sign. I wanted another sign for the nearby broom closet, and I wanted it to look like the Pantry sign. I even sought out and purchased the matching font. I conducted multiple tests to determine the best way to recreate the style of our original sign, trying engraving, masked spray painting, and powder paint fill. Ultimately, I opted for the powder paint after engraving on a sign blank from Michaels.
